Saoirse Ronan knew gender inequality existed in H'wood at 12

Actor Saoirse Ronan has said that she got to know about the gender inequalities that exist in Hollywood at the age of twelve.
The 23-year-old actor, in an interview with New York Times, said she used to be "infuriated" with the questions she was always asked when she was a child.
"It may have taken me a while to see how dynamics on set weren't fair. But I've always known, from the age of 12, that I was being asked different questions by interviewers than men: 'Who's your celebrity crush?' 'Are you putting on all the dresses?'" Ronan said.
"All about image and crushes. That always infuriated me," she added.

Asked about the inequality women faced in the movie world, Ronan said there is not enough "equal playing field" in the industry.
"A lot of women think a job like director, which is so authoritative, is one where a woman can only succeed so much," she said.
"It's only watching Greta that's changed my perspective on what I might achieve. And I've always thought of myself as a confident person," she added.
